	1. Soak the haricot beans in plenty of cold water – overnight. 2. Drain & rinse the beans under running cold water. 3. Place the beans in a large saucepan together with 3 pints of cold water and bay leaf. 4. Bring to the boil and cook for 10 minutes. Let the beans boil rapidly. 5. Peel one of the onions and stick the cloves into it and add the beans. Turn the heat down, cover with a lid and simmer gently for 1 hour. Test the beans by sticking the sharp end of a knife into a bean to see if they are tender. 6. Drain the beans – reserving the juices. Remove the onion and bay leaf. 7. Chop the remaining onion. Put the oil into a medium frying pan and heat for 30 seconds before adding the chopped onion and crushed garlic. Fry for 5 minutes. 8. Add the chopped leeks, carrots, mushrooms, chopped tinned tomatoes, tomato puree, paprika, thyme and 330ml of the juices from the beans. 9. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes. 10. Stir in the cooked beans, breadcrumbs and parsley.
